OS X V10.7 Lion :: How To Get IDisk Files To ICloud
Apr 21, 2012
I have waited as long as possible to upgrade to Lion because SL works fine for me.But iDisks days are numbered and I have no choice but to upgrade.I have a lot of work files in iDisk.Now I need to get them to iCloud, but I am not sure how to do so or even if I can do so.As a precaution, I've put them (or most of them until I ran out of free space) into Dropbox.Now Dropbox wants me to pay $99/year for more space.I paid that for mobileme and was okay with it, but now it gripes me that I have to pay for something non-Apple (that was the whole reason I left the pc world) because what Apple now has (iCloud) won't do what I need it to do.

I just just changes from mobile me to icloud and upgraded to Lion, 10.7.4. idisk is no longer supported. I had recently run idisk which indicated a hard drive problem. Before I run out and buy new software and/or take my heavy imac to Apple store. I have an old version of disk warrior, but wouldn't trust with with all the new upgrades.

I spent some time avoiding Lion after being part of seeding, even to the extent of buying a new MacPro last year, that would not require Lion. I wish to stay with Snow Leopard until a new OS apeals to me, might be Mountain Lion, might be Puma or Lynx. I now see that I have been caught out - MobileMe, iCal, iSync, iDisk etc will end and move (with limited comparability to MobileMac) to iCloud, and so far, it seems that this requires Lion exclusively!Â
Is this really so? Has Apple really become so violently unfriendly to its friends and associates - its Users, that it will actively and knowingly ignore their pleas, for a return to intelligent Operating Systems and Applications - I was told recently that Apple was only interested in those who are not yet Mac users. This would be very sad.Â
It does fit though with Apple's behaviour regarding FCP - I'd used used FCP since version 1, now I must stay with the ever aging version 7 or go to Adobe or Avid - neither of whom I enjoy working with. I might just have to invest huge money into a Heavyworks or Quantel system - I loathed FCPX! But really this is ultimately about Apple's direction. Why has it now become so narrow, when once it was possible to be many versions behind the current and still function?

I have turned on File Sharing on the server, and having logged into my iDisk via Finder, I thought I could drag the folder from the Finder window to the Public folder icon on Lion Server, but no luck. Â
I am signed into Lion Server as the admin, so what should I do? I'm trying to copy those files from the iDisk before time runs out and Apple scrubs iDisk!Â

i have been using iDisk as back-up storage and as an FTP site (using FileChute) for client files.From what i can tell, this will no longer be possible with iCloud. Worked simply and quickly. Hope there is an iCloud alternative.

My .mac account became a .me account. Now .me is going away for icloud. I currently use the "Backup" software to make scheduled back ups to my idisk account. Does anyone know if backup will still work in the post-icloud world?

From my Mac (OSX 10.7.4, all updates current) the Backup application to iCloud has stopped working.Â
When I look at iCloud in system preferences I see that I have 23.77GB of 25GB available. I edited the Backup schedule, and was able to re-establish a backup with iDisk as the destination. System Preferences says that my iDisk usage is 21.47GB total, 8.37GB used, 13.11GB available. iDisk sync is off.
When I run the backup, it all looks happy for a few seconds, and then I see the message "This plan has never been backed up to this destination". I have never used Back to My Mac.Â
What I want is to be able to automatically backup my Mac to storage on the Internet, for which I (thought) I have paid Apple. What do I need to do in order to get Backup working again?Â

I've migrated my MobileMe info to iCloud, though I'm stuck on Snow Leopard on my MacPro (I work with FCP 7 a lot). iDisk is dead right? We're not able to access our iCloud data via iDisk are we?Should I just hide iDisk in Finder Preferences since I can't use it anymore?
Should I log out of my MobileMe account in System Preferences to prevent anything that might have used iDisk from trying to access it?

Why not have Apple move all iDisk contents automatically or by request to iCloud? Why do I need to copy and paste my saved iDisk items back to my MAC or storage device? The iDisk items are already located in an Apple server, so transfer them to iCloud.

My MBP blew up so am on a temporary Blackbook and luckily all my important day to day docs are on my iDisk, no problem I thought... But something really odd is happening, when I try to open a spreadsheet with Excel (tried 04 and 08) it says "the file may be read only or you may be trying to access a read only location or the server the document on may not be responding".
I can open the file with open office and ALL other file types open fine from iDisk (including Word and PPT).
At the moment I am having to drag the files to my desktop edit them and drag them back to iDisk so all is up to date when I get my computer back.
Has anyone had anything similar? Any tips gratefully received (apart from the obvious; ditch MS Office!).
After first noticing the problem I set iDisk to keep a local copy on the temp machine but this made no difference.

Where are we going to store files now? With iDisk shut down what are we going to use for portable file storage? I am testing DropBox, but is not as easy to use as iDisk.
